Wow, had I seen this webpage before last year I would have never ...

OMG I have had EXACTLY all your side effects, except for the acne!!!
Especially this one is what I find AMAZING:
"4. I have inconsistent rashing that flares up on my face. Seems to be triggered by being in direct sunlight, but it is almost always on my chin area and feels as if my skin is on fire when it happens. "
That's EXACTLY what I had from it, and it ALWAYS started on my chin! The skin on my head would start itching enormously, and my legs too! My GP didn't know what it was of course, and said it was probably an allergy or something. It was triggered by sunlight OR by sporting/doing the housekeeping. I took photo's because it looked awful, and usually went away after an half an hour to an hour or so, and I would have no proof for my doctor otherwise...
Anyway, this thing is like poison.... I'm glad you're done with this thing and are getting it out!
I haven't had these severe rashes anymore since the thing came out five months ago.
Take care and feel free to email me! I'll send you my email address by private mail ;)
